The Press and Journal is the first-choice read for people in its circulation area, beating all of its rivals in terms of sales penetration and readership.
Published six days a week, The Press and Journal’s circulation area covers Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, Moray, Inverness and the Highlands and Islands. The Press and Journal also keeps readers up-to-date online with breaking news and even more content. Our aim is to remain local and relevant to our readers with our content, whilst also including Scottish, national and international news. We carry weekly supplements including Your Home, Your Car, and our weekend special P&J Weekend. We also publish occasional, quarterly and monthly supplements, including our Energy Voice supplement. Energy Voice appears on the first Monday of each month, and covers all aspects of the oil, gas and renewables industry, which is the major employer in the north-east.
Fishing, farming, finance, whisky production and tourism are also major industries. These are well covered in our comprehensive Business and Farming pages. We have a sport pullout The Score on a Monday. The total pagination on a Monday is between 17 and 21, including the pullout.
The Press and Journal has an array of award-winning podcasts from true crime thrillers to Scottish politics. You can discover and listen to all our podcasts here, or on Apple, Google, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
